Marathon Finish

Running Accomplishments:

I ran cross country and track at Orem High in Orem, Utah during all three of the years I attended high school. I don't really have any great accomplishments but I'm probably in the best shape of my life right now so hopefully I'll have some soon!

Short-Term Running Goals:

I want to break three hours in a marathon by the end of 2009, and I want to break 36 minutes in a 10k.

Long-Term Running Goals:

I'm planning to serve an LDS mission starting next spring, so I will be taking a two year break from running. Right now my main goal is to break three hours in a marathon before I leave to serve that mission!

Personal:

I just graduated from high school and I will be attending BYU in the fall! I am 18 and planning to serve an LDS mission in starting next May. I have 5 sisters and 3 brothers, only one of which is a runner. (my oldest brother)

Today I did a 7 mile run at normal pace with a small 5 minute fartlek in the middle. I felt really good and I'm really looking forward to Wasatch Back next week!!!!

I know I've been slacking lately, I'm going to try to update this everyday for the rest of the summer! Today I did the Wasatch Back Relay!! It was fun and I felt really good running it so I'm excited to run the 10k on July 4th! I think I'm finally getting back into cross country shape which makes me very happy! :)

Today I decided to take the day off because I am still really sore from Wasatch Back, but I am going to start running again tomorrow! I'm going to run with Orem's cross country team during the summer and I know that will get me into really good shape and give me people to run with that can push me! And it will be a good experience!

Today I ran with the cross country team. We just did five miles easy to start the season. My legs were still pretty sore and my body is tired as well, but I'm feeling better everyday so I should be back to normal by the end of the week. The Wasatch Back gave me a lot of confidence and I am really looking forward to the 10k next week now! I'm in pretty good shape so I should run a good race!

Today I did 5 miles with 3- 3 minute fartleks. I felt really good through them and I think I'm almost completely recovered from the Wasatch Back!

Today I did a trail run up the canyon. There was a lot of uphill and I felt pretty tired during it. I'm working 51 hours this week which means I'm on my feet pretty much all day and that might be a reason why, but I'm not going to take a break!

Today I just did 6 miles easy up the canyon. There was one major hill but the rest was either flat or downhill. I'm really tired because I work all day every day, but I'm still running my hardest!

Today I ran 7 miles pretty easy, but my legs were tired from this week of work. The closer the race gets the more excited I get for it!

Today I am so thankful for the day of rest I get! I worked 50 hours this week so I am really tired. But I'm looking forward to this week of running so I'll let you know how it goes. By the way, I don't know if anyone else reads this other than Steve, but I'm just assuming he is the only one, but if not I would be interested to know if someone else reads this!

Today I ran 6 miles and it was probably around 7:00 pace. I actually didn't feel very good but I got through it just fine!

Today I did a 7 mile trail run! The beginning was straight uphill for the first mile, and that BURNED my quads really bad, but I didn't walk at all! I'm hoping that will help me for the last hill on the 10k this Saturday! The rest of the run was just flat or downhill, but the first mile made the whole run hard! But I feel really good about hills now!
